Book of the Old Novena (Pack of 5)

Posadas Navidenas, Mexico’s traditional Christmas celebrations, are held from December 16th to December 24th in towns and villages across the country. The posada, or Christmas party, re-enacts the journey of Mary and Joseph as they sought shelter in Bethlehem. These gatherings often feature villancicos (Christmas carols), prayers, and the breaking of a pinata – a brightly colored papier-mache figure hung from a rope. Blindfolded participants take turns striking the pinata with a stick until it bursts, showering fruit and sweets that children eagerly rush to collect.
